TIL : DDOT's ATE dashboard shows how many tickets were recorded by a given camera, and how they rank in the city. This camera near me "recorded 726 violations" in the month of August—an _average_ of more than 23 per day, nearly one per hour all day all month—and still only ranked 14/33 in DC.

Screenshot of a section of the DDOT A.T.E. dashboard showing part of the map and part of the explanatory text, reading "In August 2024, the camera on northbound 13th St NW at Girard St NW recorded 726 violations, ranking 14 out of 33 active Stop Sign cameras."

Even when you're nowhere near the Pentagon ("This is a Red Line train to...Shady Grove"), you get some weird-ass ads on Metro...

Ad for military aircraft on the train

I know what this is about, and I know what this is referencing, and I *still* keep reading it as “HOT POTATO”. (...which, to be fair, I suppose isn't *that* far off....)

730DC email this morning with the subject line "H-O-T-T---A-T-O", about WMATA planning to resume Automated Train Operations.
